DAY 7: FIND JOY IN THE JOURNEY

Today I confirmed once again I have a problem with green veggies and fruits. It takes time to cut those guys up and put in zip lock bags and eat them.. I find myself learning what a produce section is again...so many changes to make and this focusing on my health is a lot of work...:(

I find myself focusing on the finish line and I need to embrace this journey I am on.

Try to find joy in it...:(

Teaching my self to rethink my way of eating. Not to eat for comfort but for substance. I am not perfect by any means, I still grab a few chips here and there but I am getting better every day. My weigh in is tomorrow. Hopefully I will see some progress from all this sacrifice! 

Exercising is still evading me, no time....gotta make time. Also though I try can't seem to get in the bed at a decent hour, fell asleep around 130 am this morning. 

Not good for me wanting to get up early. Figured I need to start getting up early and exercising before the day begins or I will not make the time for it. 

I also reconnected with Sparkpeople.com again as it is a great community of people like me trying to lose weight and get healthy. Here is the link.
